My friend is planning for that fateful day when he actually has some fully colonized jars to fruit. He's not going to be able to fan 3 - 4 times a day - that thing called work gets in the way... anyway, he has been looking at using an aquarium air pump to use for air exchange. Narrowed down to 2 models - one moves 150 liters per hour and 1 moves 200 liters per hour. Both in price range (30 - 35 US). Terrarium is clear tupperware - 16" h x 22" w x 16" d (approx) and will be humidified with 1 1/2 - 2" of perlite. Questions are these:

1). Will the air pump provide enough air exchange?

2). Do you just run the tube in from the top and let it hang? Or should you use an air stone or some other disperser on the end?

He can still fan 1 or maybe 2 times per day, but thats about all. Many thanks in advance for any help.

Well first off 30-35 for a pump?!?!?! Your fuckin nutz!!! I payed 11 and change and all the parts all together 25 bucks with shipping at the site magash said to get the pump from. Here check this out Post I Have built mine I will take pics when i birth my cakes of my whole setup it is basically what magash said to use, only difference i am using perlite not hydroton, and i bought a 48" air diffuser and magash suggested a 36" one. Just follow that and your set bro.
